FAYETTEVILLE And a little child shall lead them.
In biblical times the young leader was named David. In
Monday night's ACC women's basketball tournament final,
the precocious one was named Deana Tate.
Tate, a 5-8 freshman guard from Gastonia, was named
tourney MVP as Maryland ripped 13th-ranked North
Carolina 90-74 to win the ACC title in front of 2,632 fans
in the Cumberland County Memorial Arena.
Tate, who scored 77 points in Maryland's three tournament
victories, poured in a career-high 32 points, 20 in the second
half alone,, on 12-of-22 shooting from the field. Tate
downplayed her own accomplishment,, saying it was. a ieam
effort. y-rrf";.'r - - - -
"We have good talent and confidence and it feels so good
to win," Tate said. "We wanted to win this for coach Weller
and the seniors very much, and we did."
The fifth-seeded Lady Terrapins, who have won their last
five games and stand at 17-12, won the tournament for the
sixth time in its nine-year history. In the process, the second
seeded Tar Heels (22-8) lost in the final for the second straight
season. :
"A different team (Maryland) came to Fayettevillle," UNC
coach Jennifer Alley said. "Maryland has just played some
very inspired basketball over the past three days."
Ironically, North Carolina won both regular season
meetings with the Lady Terps. The Tar Heels, who have
never beaten their rivals from College Park thrice in the
same season, are still searching for their first hat trick.
Maryland seemed to play the game's first eight minutes
in tribute in Arnold Schwarzenegger they almost
terminated the Tar Heels. A lone Kathy Wilson layup was
all UNC could muster in that period as Maryland raced
to a 19-2 lead. Eight points by the Lady Terps' Chequita
Wood, all from close range, led the surge. The oft-injured;
5-1 1 senior finished with 11 points. But Wood's 36 points
in Maryland's first two tourney showings placed her on the
all-tournament team with teammates Tate and Vicki Bullett
(20 points in the final).
Settiin&bme
But North Carolina refused to fold, although no one could
have blamed the shell-shocked squad if they had done so.
UNC started pounding the ball inside to Wilson (20 points)
and Dawn Royster (team-high 21 points) and cut the deficit
down to 39-30 at halftime. A 14-4 Tar Heel run during the
final 5:45 of the first half gave new life to the Chapel Hill
crew and left the women in red (Maryland) slightly stunned.
Considering its 36 percent shooting performance in the
opening half, UNC had to feel fortunate.
A Pam Leake jumper at the 16:00 minute mark of the
second half drew the Tar Heels to within seven, 43-36, but
that would be as close as North Carolina would come.
Enter Tate; Six 'points and two assists (she finished with
seven) by the former Ashbrook High star triggered a 10
4 run that pushed the Terps' lead back to 13 at 53-40 and
effectively took the wind out of North Carolina's sails.
Two years ago (Tate was academically red-shirted last
season), Maryland and UNC vied for Tate's services.
Maryland won that battle and now seemingly the war as
well. Alley admitted that she could not help but think of
what might have been.
"Deana Tate's a great player. We couldn't get over the
admissions barrier," Alley said. "Maryland had an academic
program that she could go to in order to get certain courses
she needed to correct some academic deficiencies."
Leake, who finished with 18 points on just 6-of-19 field
goal shooting, pushed her season point total to 654, one
more than Royster's previous UNC best set last season. Leake
and Wake Forest's Amy Privette rounded out the all
tournament team.
Alley had hoped her team would outlast Maryland, which
uses only six players. But, as the saying goes, even the best
laid plans of mice and basketball coaches sometimes go awry.
"I thought maybe they'd wear down," Alley said. "But when
the adrenaline is flowing and you're winning by twenty points
you don't realize how tired you are." '
Now North Carolina must wait and see what its future
holds. While a place in the NCAA tournament's forty-team
field is virtually assured, a first-round bye no longer is.

A recent rash of automobile break
ins may be the work of an organized
crime syndicate, according to Chapel
Hill Police Chief Herman Stone.
Last weekend there were 10 reported
automobile break-ins, most in Chapel
Hill apartment complexes, Stone said.
Car stereo systems were taken, along
with any valuable items left in the cars.
Police believe that an organized gang
may take the stolen property and sell
it in other nearby cities for a reduced
rate. Stone said the department had
some leads on where the property was
being resold, but would not comment
further.
He also said that the police have not
found any of the stolen property being
sold in Chapel Hill.
Car stereo sytems were stolen from
three cars parked at Foxcroft Apart
ments, one car parked at Brookwood
Condominiums, one? car parked at
Village Green Condominiums and one
car parked at the Institue of Pharmacy
on the University campus.
Miscellaneous items were also taken
from a car parked on Cameron Avenue
and a car parked at the Chapel Hill
Newspaper parking lot.
Police have patrolled the apartment
complexes heavily during the past few
months, but Stone said the patrols have
led to no arrests.

The east side of two-year-old Walter
Royal Davis Library is settling, causing
splits in the marble and cracks1 in the
tile of the first floor women's restroom.
Brad Lamb, library operations
officer, said the entrance door to the
restroom did not close properly and
cracks in one part of the tiled walls
extended to the ceiling.. Also, several
of 4he marble partitions are -cracked,
and some stall doors do hot close
properly.
Decisions on the type of repairs
required in the $22.5 million structure
will be made after a representative from
the Physical Plant assesses the damage,
he said.
Larry Alford, assistant university
librarian for business and finance, said
he contacted an architect Monday from
the University's Engineering and Con
struction department to study the
damages before repairs are made.
"The maintenance people don't want
to patch the tile and have to repair it
again next month," Alford said. "We're
taking no more Band-Aid approaches.
WeVe asked the Physical Plant for an
opinion."
The east end of the library, which
faces Raleigh Street, has no basement
because it is built on a concrete slab,
Alford said.
Lamb said that when workers dug
the foundations for the building, they
hit bedrock, which delayed construction
because dynamiting was necessary.
"That may be part of the reason that
part (the east side) of the building
doesn't have a basement," he said. , ,
orth-Gampus -M aintenance - Super-
visor Bruce Jones said he had not
addressed the problem. "I'm not sure
exactly what we're going to do because
. . . (the settling) is splitting the mar
ble," he said. "We aren't sure whether
to patch it, repair it or replace it."
"It's just an ordinary maintenance
problem," Alford said. "We may have
to replace the partitions with steel or
aluminum instead of marble."
Lamb said replacing the marble in
the bathroom stalls with metal parti
tions might help the problem "since
marble has less give to it."
The problem has gradually worsened
since last spring, Lamb said.
Claude E. "Gene" Swecker, associate
vice chancellor for facilities manage
ment, and Selwyn Bryant, director of
es library
the Engineering and Construction
department, both said they had no
knowledge of the settling. Bryant
speculated that damages in the women's
restroom could have been caused by
shrinkage of construction materials.
Davis was cited by a group of
architects and educators in December
for its outstanding design.
Buddy Williams, chief engineer of the
Physical Plant, said an investigation
was inducted to address- th& problem,
which is not the first structural problem
that has been encountered in Davis.
In a separate maintenance problem
which began after heavy rains last
spring, rainwater has been seeping
through wall? on the south side of the
building. Water and mud accumulated
between Davis and Daniels Building
and seeped into underground air ducts,
causing breakage.
"Mud filled a ceiling-suspended duct
so that it fell to the floor," Williams
said. "The grounds committee is doing
some landscaping work to drain the
water away from the building."
Preventing the accumulation of
standing water outside the building
would probably alleviate the leakage,
Williams said.
For Nicaraguan rebels

WASHINGTON (AP) President
Reagan, battling for congressional
approval of $100 million for. Nicara
gua's anti-government rebels, warned
Monday that defeat of the package
would trigger a "strategic disaster" that
could lead to the establishment of Soviet
military bases "on America's doorstep."
Intensifying his campaign to renew
military aid to the rebels, Reagan met
in the Oval Office with three leaders
of anti-government forces.
The president said defeat of the
rebels, known as Contras, "would open
up the possibility of Soviet military
bases on America's doorstep, threaten
the ( security of the , Panama Canal,
inaugurate a vast migration march to
the United States of hundreds of
thousands of refugees.
"Those who would invite this stra- '
tegic disaster by abandoning yet another
fighting ally of this country in the field
will be held fully accountable by
history," the president vowed.
Reagan faces a long-odds battle to
win approcal of the aid package, and
he used a long list of arguments to
defend his proposal. .
"Defeat for the Contras would mean
a second Cuba on the mainland of
North America," he said.
"It would be a major defeat in the
quest for democracy in our hemisphere.
'Defeat for the Contras
would mean a second
Cuba on the mainland
of North America.
Reagan
It would mean consolidation of a
privileged sanctuary for terrorists and
subversives just two days' driving time
from Harlingen, Texas," Reagan added.
"I've asked for $100 million in
assistance and well fight for it," he said.
"Simple humanitarian aid is not
enough."
' Congressional Democrats and Repub
licans agree that Reagan will have to
put his personal weight behind the aid
campaign for it to have any serious
chance of approval.
Reagan met with three leaders of the
Unified Nicaraguan Opposition, UNO.
Aides said he had no plans to meet with
leaders of other rebel factions also in
Washington, including Eden Pastora
and leaders of Indian rebel groups.
The Contras are in Washington for
what is expected to be their most
extensive congressional lobbying offen
sive to date.
Expectations of food services outlined
By GUY LUCAS
Staff Writer
Representatives of about a dozen
companies that may compete to
become UNC's food service next fall
heard what the University and
students would expect from a food
service at a meeting Monday in
Gerrard Hall.
The University's contract with
ARA, the present food service
company, will be up for renewal this
spring. '.y -V : '
"The University wants a good food
service, and a good food service is
about as hard to define as a good
man," said Thomas A. Shetley,
director of auxiliary services.
The University wants a food
service providing food that satisfies
most of the people, at prices that
satisfy most of the people and with
service that satisfies most of the
people, Shetley said.
"It will be a bad mistake to try
to low-ball this bid with the intent
of coming back and getting conces
sions from the University later,"
Shetley said. "The University will
grant only those concessions we are
contractually obligated to make."
Companies would not be able to
make an unrealistically low bid and
expect to get compromises from the
University to help the company
make a profit, he explained.
Associate Vice Chancellor of
Student Affairs James O. Cansler
said the University expected the food
service contractor to make a profit.
"I must quickly say this University
is not in the food service business
to make money," he said. "The food
service operated here must serve as
a facilitator of learning. It must be
a partner in teaching," he added
emphasizing "the role of wholesome
food and a good diet in good health."
The campus food service should

Fred Formichella and David Freytag of Education Food Services discuss their company's possible bid
serve the campus community and
provide good food as inexpensively
as possible, Cansler said. Since there
are many nearby alternatives to
eating on campus, the food service
has to create a sense of community
and enhance the campus commun
ity, he added.
"Eating together builds interper
sonal relationships," he said. "This
is the University's principal reason
to have a food service at all.
"We want a food service that
appreciates its role in a community
like this and is willing to fulfill that
role."
. Sean Phelan, a student member
of the Food Services Advisory
Committee, expressed some student
leaders' concerns to the
representatives.
"Students would like to take a
more active role in the food service,"
he said. "Students feel they should
have a chance to constructively
criticize or give advice to the food
service."
Phelan said employees should be
able to express their grievances, and
there should be more student
employees.
Students should have opportun
ities to move into supervisory posi
tions, he said.
The food service also would be
expected to provide good food at
prices comparable to similar-sized
businesses off campvis, Phelan said.
How much companies take these
concerns into consideration could
have an effect on the FSAC's
recommendation, Phelan said, since
the students on the committee would
take it into consideration.
Frank W. Fearrington, director of
purchases and stores, said the FSAC
would be reviewing each company's
bid and making a recommendation.
Fearrington said he would review
the bids again and probably would
agree with the committee's
recommendation.
Once a bid is selected, it still must
be reviewed by state officials, he said.
Let him that would move the world first move himself. Socrates
